Improve recently-added test reliability
Commit 59be1c942a already tried to make
src/test/recovery/t/033_replay_tsp_drops more reliable, but it wasn't
enough.  Try to improve on that by making this use of a replication slot
to be more like others.  Also, don't drop the slot.

Make a few other stylistic changes while at it.  It's still quite slow,
which is another thing that we need to fix in this script.

Backpatch addition of .git-blame-ignore-revs
This makes it more convenient for git config to contain the
blame.ignoreRevsFile setting; otherwise current git versions complain if
the file is not present.

I constructed the file for each branch by scraping the file in branch
master for commits that appear in that branch.  Because a few additional
pgindent commits have been added to the list in master since the list
was first created, this also propagates those to branches 14 and 15
where the file already existed.  Also, some entries appear to have been
made using author-date rather than committer-date in the format string,
so some timestamps are changed.  Also remove bogus whitespace in the
suggested `git log` format string.

BRIN: mask BRIN_EVACUATE_PAGE for WAL consistency checking
That bit is unlogged and therefore it's wrong to consider it in WAL page
comparison.

Add a test that tickles the case, as branch testing technology allows.

This has been a problem ever since wal consistency checking was

Fix ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER to handle recursion correctly
Using ATSimpleRecursion() in ATPrepCmd() to do so as bbb927b4db did is
not correct, because ATPrepCmd() can't distinguish between triggers that
may be cloned and those that may not, so would wrongly try to recurse
for the latter category of triggers.

So this commit restores the code in EnableDisableTrigger() that
86f575948c had added to do the recursion, which would do it only for
triggers that may be cloned, that is, row-level triggers.  This also
changes tablecmds.c such that ATExecCmd() is able to pass the value of
ONLY flag down to EnableDisableTrigger() using its new 'recurse'
parameter.

This also fixes what seems like an oversight of 86f575948c that the
recursion to partition triggers would only occur if EnableDisableTrigger()
had actually changed the trigger.  It is more apt to recurse to inspect
partition triggers even if the parent's trigger didn't need to be
changed: only then can we be certain that all descendants share the same
state afterwards.

Backpatch all the way back to 11, like bbb927b4db.  Care is taken not
to break ABI compatibility (and that no catversion bump is needed.)

Tom Lane 2e2f3435af Add CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS in ExecInsert's speculative insertion loop.
Ordinarily the functions called in this loop ought to have plenty
of CFIs themselves; but we've now seen a case where no such CFI is
reached, making the loop uninterruptible.  Even though that's from
a recently-introduced bug, it seems prudent to install a CFI at
the loop level in all branches.

that bug will follow).

Tom Lane e94c52fca6 Reduce test runtime of src/test/modules/snapshot_too_old.
The sto_using_cursor and sto_using_select tests were coded to exercise
every permutation of their test steps, but AFAICS there is no value in
exercising more than one.  This matters because each permutation costs
about six seconds, thanks to the "pg_sleep(6)".  Perhaps we could
reduce that, but the useless permutations seem worth getting rid of
in any case.  (Note that sto_using_hash_index got it right already.)

While here, clean up some other sloppiness such as an unused table.

This doesn't make too much difference in interactive testing, since the
wasted time is typically masked by parallelization with other tests.
However, the buildfarm runs this as a serial step, which means we can
expect to shave ~40 seconds from every buildfarm run.  That makes it
worth back-patching.

Tom Lane 06f6a07ba4 Be more wary about 32-bit integer overflow in pg_stat_statements.
We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files.  It occurred to me that on
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow
of calculations associated with the total query text size.
Address that with several changes:

1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"
is 64 bits.  We still need overflow guards on its use, but
this helps.

2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to
more than MaxAllocHugeSize.  If it got that big, qtext_load_file
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.

3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit
arithmetic on all platforms.  It appears possible that under duress
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table
insertion.

Per report from Bruno da Silva.  I'm not convinced that these
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first
place.  But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.

(See also commit 8bbe4cbd9, which addressed some related bugs.
The second Discussion: link is the thread that led up to that.)

This issue is old, and is primarily a problem for old platforms,
so back-patch.

Tom Lane 51d8b52fcf Check maximum number of columns in function RTEs, too.
I thought commit fd96d14d9 had plugged all the holes of this sort,
but no, function RTEs could produce oversize tuples too, either
via long coldeflists or just from multiple functions in one RTE.
(I'm pretty sure the other variants of base RTEs aren't a problem,
because they ultimately refer to either a table or a sub-SELECT,
whose widths are enforced elsewhere.  But we explicitly allow join
RTEs to be overwidth, as long as you don't try to form their
tuple result.)

Tom Lane 8dea18372f In transformRowExpr(), check for too many columns in the row.
A RowExpr with more than MaxTupleAttributeNumber columns would fail at
execution anyway, since we cannot form a tuple datum with more than that
many columns.  While heap_form_tuple() has a check for too many columns,
it emerges that there are some intermediate bits of code that don't
check and can be driven to failure with sufficiently many columns.
Checking this at parse time seems like the most appropriate place to
install a defense, since we already check SELECT list length there.

While at it, make the SELECT-list-length error use the same errcode
(TOO_MANY_COLUMNS) as heap_form_tuple does, rather than the generic
PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.

Per bug #17561 from Egor Chindyaskin.  The given test case crashes
in all supported branches (and probably a lot further back),
so patch all.

Fix replay of create database records on standby
Crash recovery on standby may encounter missing directories
when replaying database-creation WAL records.  Prior to this
patch, the standby would fail to recover in such a case;
however, the directories could be legitimately missing.
Consider the following sequence of commands:

    CREATE DATABASE
    DROP DATABASE
    DROP TABLESPACE

If, after replaying the last WAL record and removing the
tablespace directory, the standby crashes and has to replay the
create database record again, crash recovery must be able to continue.

A fix for this problem was already attempted in 49d9cfc68b, but it
was reverted because of design issues.  This new version is based
on Robert Haas' proposal: any missing tablespaces are created
during recovery before reaching consistency.  Tablespaces
are created as real directories, and should be deleted
by later replay.  CheckRecoveryConsistency ensures
they have disappeared.

The problems detected by this new code are reported as PANIC,
except when allow_in_place_tablespaces is set to ON, in which
case they are WARNING.  Apart from making tests possible, this
gives users an escape hatch in case things don't go as planned.

Tom Lane 9e3e1ac458 Force immediate commit after CREATE DATABASE etc in extended protocol.
We have a few commands that "can't run in a transaction block",
meaning that if they complete their processing but then we fail
to COMMIT, we'll be left with inconsistent on-disk state.
However, the existing defenses for this are only watertight for
simple query protocol.  In extended protocol, we didn't commit
until receiving a Sync message.  Since the client is allowed to
issue another command instead of Sync, we're in trouble if that
command fails or is an explicit ROLLBACK.  In any case, sitting
in an inconsistent state while waiting for a client message
that might not come seems pretty risky.

This case wasn't reachable via libpq before we introduced pipeline
mode, but it's always been an intended aspect of extended query
protocol, and likely there are other clients that could reach it
before.

To fix, set a flag in PreventInTransactionBlock that tells
exec_execute_message to force an immediate commit.  This seems
to be the approach that does least damage to existing working
cases while still preventing the undesirable outcomes.

While here, add some documentation to protocol.sgml that explicitly
says how to use pipelining.  That's latent in the existing docs if
you know what to look for, but it's better to spell it out; and it
provides a place to document this new behavior.

Per bug #17434 from Yugo Nagata.  It's been wrong for ages,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

Tom Lane 1078742af0 Fix ruleutils issues with dropped cols in functions-returning-composite.
Due to lack of concern for the case in the dependency code, it's
possible to drop a column of a composite type even though stored
queries have references to the dropped column via functions-in-FROM
that return the composite type.  There are "soft" references,
namely FROM-clause aliases for such columns, and "hard" references,
that is actual Vars referring to them.  The right fix for hard
references is to add dependencies preventing the drop; something
we've known for many years and not done (and this commit still doesn't
address it).  A "soft" reference shouldn't prevent a drop though.
We've been around on this before (cf. 9b35ddce9, 2c4debbd0), but
nobody had noticed that the current behavior can result in dump/reload
failures, because ruleutils.c can print more column aliases than the
underlying composite type now has.  So we need to rejigger the
column-alias-handling code to treat such columns as dropped and not
print aliases for them.

Rather than writing new code for this, I used expandRTE() which already
knows how to figure out which function result columns are dropped.
I'd initially thought maybe we could use expandRTE() in all cases, but
that fails for EXPLAIN's purposes, because the planner strips a lot of
RTE infrastructure that expandRTE() needs.  So this patch just uses it
for unplanned function RTEs and otherwise does things the old way.

If there is a hard reference (Var), then removing the column alias
causes us to fail to print the Var, since there's no longer a name
to print.  Failing seems less desirable than printing a made-up
name, so I made it print "?dropped?column?" instead.

Per report from Timo Stolz.  Back-patch to all supported branches.

Fujii Masao 80c3ea9185 Fix assertion failure and segmentation fault in backup code.
When a non-exclusive backup is canceled, do_pg_abort_backup() is called
and resets some variables set by pg_backup_start (pg_start_backup in v14
or before). But previously it forgot to reset the session state indicating
whether a non-exclusive backup is in progress or not in this session.

This issue could cause an assertion failure when the session running
BASE_BACKUP is terminated after it executed pg_backup_start and
pg_backup_stop (pg_stop_backup in v14 or before). Also it could cause
a segmentation fault when pg_backup_stop is called after BASE_BACKUP
in the same session is canceled.

Fujii Masao 87e5044877 Prevent BASE_BACKUP in the middle of another backup in the same session.
Multiple non-exclusive backups are able to be run conrrently in different
sessions. But, in the same session, only one non-exclusive backup can be
run at the same moment. If pg_backup_start (pg_start_backup in v14 or before)
is called in the middle of another non-exclusive backup in the same session,
an error is thrown.

However, previously, in logical replication walsender mode, even if that
walsender session had already called pg_backup_start and started
a non-exclusive backup, it could execute BASE_BACKUP command and
start another non-exclusive backup. Which caused subsequent pg_backup_stop
to throw an error because BASE_BACKUP unexpectedly reset the session state
marked by pg_backup_start.

This commit prevents BASE_BACKUP command in the middle of another

save-and-restore the caller's signal mask.

The PG_SETMASK() portability macro couldn't be used for that, which is
why it wasn't done before.  But... considering that commit a65e0864

coding where the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() call was somewhat removed from
the loop (see commit 422952ee).

On further reflection, that was not a great choice for at least two
reasons:

1.  If interrupts were held, the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() would do nothing
and the EINTR error would be surfaced to the user.

2.  If EINTR was reported but neither QueryCancelPending nor
ProcDiePending was set, then we'd dutifully retry, but with a bit more
understanding of how posix_fallocate() works, it's now clear that you
can get into a loop that never terminates.  posix_fallocate() is not a
function that can do some of the job and tell you about progress if it's
interrupted, it has to undo what it's done so far and report EINTR, and
if signals keep arriving faster than it can complete (cf recovery
conflict signals), you're stuck.

Therefore, for now, we'll simply block most signals to guarantee
progress.  SIGQUIT is not blocked (see InitPostmasterChild()), because
its expected handler doesn't return, and unblockable signals like
SIGCONT are not expected to arrive at a high rate.  For good measure,
we'll include the ftruncate() call in the blocked region, and add a
retry loop.

Thomas Munro cd26139a30 Fix lock assertions in dshash.c.
dshash.c previously maintained flags to be able to assert that you
didn't hold any partition lock.  These flags could get out of sync with
reality in error scenarios.

Get rid of all that, and make assertions about the locks themselves
instead.  Since LWLockHeldByMe() loops internally, we don't want to put
that inside another loop over all partition locks.  Introduce a new
debugging-only interface LWLockAnyHeldByMe() to avoid that.

This problem was noted by Tom and Andres while reviewing changes to
support the new shared memory stats system, and later showed up in
reality while working on commit 389869af.

Back-patch to 11, where dshash.c arrived.

Dean Rasheed e88b1f1e22 Fix alias matching in transformLockingClause().
When locking a specific named relation for a FOR [KEY] UPDATE/SHARE
clause, transformLockingClause() finds the relation to lock by
scanning the rangetable for an RTE with a matching eref->aliasname.
However, it failed to account for the visibility rules of a join RTE.

If a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, it will have a
generated eref->aliasname of "unnamed_join" that is not visible as a
relation name in the parse namespace. Such an RTE needs to be skipped,
otherwise it might be found in preference to a regular base relation
with a user-supplied alias of "unnamed_join", preventing it from being
locked.

In addition, if a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, but
does have a join_using_alias, then the RTE needs to be matched using
that alias rather than the generated eref->aliasname, otherwise a
misleading "relation not found" error will be reported rather than a
"join cannot be locked" error.

Backpatch all the way, except for the second part which only goes back
to 14, where JOIN USING aliases were added.

Noah Misch d68b731a15 ecpglib: call newlocale() once per process.
ecpglib has been calling it once per SQL query and once per EXEC SQL GET
DESCRIPTOR.  Instead, if newlocale() has not succeeded before, call it
while establishing a connection.  This mitigates three problems:
- If newlocale() failed in EXEC SQL GET DESCRIPTOR, the command silently
  proceeded without the intended locale change.
- On AIX, each newlocale()+freelocale() cycle leaked memory.
- newlocale() CPU usage may have been nontrivial.

Fail the connection attempt if newlocale() fails.  Rearrange
ecpg_do_prologue() to validate the connection before its uselocale().

The sort of program that may regress is one running in an environment
where newlocale() fails.  If that program establishes connections
without running SQL statements, it will stop working in response to this
change.  I'm betting against the importance of such an ECPG use case.
Most SQL execution (any using ECPGdo()) has long required newlocale()
success, so there's little a connection could do without newlocale().

Back-patch to v10 (all supported versions).

Thomas Munro facfd04678 Harden dsm_impl.c against unexpected EEXIST.
Previously, we trusted the OS not to report EEXIST unless we'd passed in
IPC_CREAT | IPC_EXCL or O_CREAT | O_EXCL, as appropriate.  Solaris's
shm_open() can in fact do that, causing us to crash because we didn't
ereport and then we blithely assumed the mapping was successful.

Let's treat EEXIST just like any other error, unless we're actually
trying to create a new segment.  This applies to shm_open(), where this
behavior has been seen, and also to the equivalent operations for our
sysv and mmap modes just on principle.

Based on the underlying reason for the error, namely contention on a
lock file managed by Solaris librt for each distinct name, this problem
is only likely to happen on 15 and later, because the new shared memory
stats system produces shm_open() calls for the same path from
potentially large numbers of backends concurrently during
authentication.  Earlier releases only shared memory segments between a
small number of parallel workers under one Gather node.  You could
probably hit it if you tried hard enough though, and we should have been
more defensive in the first place.  Therefore, back-patch to all
supported releases.

Per build farm animal margay.  This isn't the end of the story, though,
it just changes random crashes into random "File exists" errors; more
work needed for a green build farm.

Heikki Linnakangas b49889f3c0 Fix visibility check when XID is committed in CLOG but not in procarray.
TransactionIdIsInProgress had a fast path to return 'false' if the
single-item CLOG cache said that the transaction was known to be
committed. However, that was wrong, because a transaction is first
marked as committed in the CLOG but doesn't become visible to others
until it has removed its XID from the proc array. That could lead to an
error:

    ERROR:  t_xmin is uncommitted in tuple to be updated

or for an UPDATE to go ahead without blocking, before the previous
UPDATE on the same row was made visible.

The window is usually very short, but synchronous replication makes it
much wider, because the wait for synchronous replica happens in that
window.

Another thing that makes it hard to hit is that it's hard to get such
a commit-in-progress transaction into the single item CLOG cache.
Normally, if you call TransactionIdIsInProgress on such a transaction,
it determines that the XID is in progress without checking the CLOG
and without populating the cache. One way to prime the cache is to
explicitly call pg_xact_status() on the XID. Another way is to use a
lot of subtransactions, so that the subxid cache in the proc array is
overflown, making TransactionIdIsInProgress rely on pg_subtrans and
CLOG checks.

This has been broken ever since it was introduced in 2008, but the race
condition is very hard to hit, especially without synchronous
replication. There were a couple of reports of the error starting from
summer 2021, but no one was able to find the root cause then.

TransactionIdIsKnownCompleted() is now unused. In 'master', remove it,
but I left it in place in backbranches in case it's used by extensions.

Also change pg_xact_status() to check TransactionIdIsInProgress().
Previously, it only checked the CLOG, and returned "committed" before
the transaction was actually made visible to other queries. Note that
this also means that you cannot use pg_xact_status() to reproduce the
bug anymore, even if the code wasn't fixed.

Report and analysis by Konstantin Knizhnik. Patch by Simon Riggs, with
the pg_xact_status() change added by me.

Tom Lane 2f6b8c287b Fix SPI's handling of errors during transaction commit.
SPI_commit previously left it up to the caller to recover from any error
occurring during commit.  Since that's complicated and requires use of
low-level xact.c facilities, it's not too surprising that no caller got
it right.  Let's move the responsibility for cleanup into spi.c.  Doing
that requires redefining SPI_commit as starting a new transaction, so
that it becomes equivalent to SPI_commit_and_chain except that you get
default transaction characteristics instead of preserving the prior
transaction's characteristics.  We can make this pretty transparent
API-wise by redefining SPI_start_transaction() as a no-op.  Callers
that expect to do something in between might be surprised, but
available evidence is that no callers do so.

Having made that API redefinition, we can fix this mess by having
SPI_commit[_and_chain] trap errors and start a new, clean transaction
before re-throwing the error.  Likewise for SPI_rollback[_and_chain].
Some cleanup is also needed in AtEOXact_SPI, which was nowhere near
smart enough to deal with SPI contexts nested inside a committing
context.

While plperl and pltcl need no changes beyond removing their now-useless
SPI_start_transaction() calls, plpython needs some more work because it
hadn't gotten the memo about catching commit/rollback errors in the
first place.  Such an error resulted in longjmp'ing out of the Python
interpreter, which leaks Python stack entries at present and is reported
to crash Python 3.11 altogether.  Add the missing logic to catch such
errors and convert them into Python exceptions.

This is a back-patch of commit 2e517818f.  That's now aged long enough
to reduce the concerns about whether it will break something, and we
do need to ensure that supported branches will work with Python 3.11.

Tom Lane f7797747fc Avoid ecpglib core dump with out-of-order operations.
If an application executed operations like EXEC SQL PREPARE
without having first established a database connection, it could
get a core dump instead of the expected clean failure.  This
occurred because we did "pthread_getspecific(actual_connection_key)"
without ever having initialized the TSD key actual_connection_key.
The results of that are probably platform-specific, but at least
on Linux it often leads to a crash.

To fix, add calls to ecpg_pthreads_init() in the code paths that
might use actual_connection_key uninitialized.  It's harmless
(and hopefully inexpensive) to do that more than once.
